Today I animated our storyboard using the programme Final Cut pro. To do the animation I simply scanned the two sheets of storyboard and used the scale button to zoom to each shot so that it’s one shot in each frame at a time. I put them in order so that the storyboard was like a comic strip almost. I then used key framing to pan out and use movement in the shot to convey our camera movements.
I manages to get the hang of being able to make the image move, I was showed how to use key frames and this meant that I could move the shot around to mirror the camera angles that we wanted to use.
The animation was uploaded to Vimeo and this is the link to watch it:
We also used Final cut to produce another version of our story board which doesn’t include movement within the shot, but is displayed in a different way to the first one. We also put music over it and used a cork board background animation connecting the shots. Here is the animation:
